LOVE TALK: 10 Effective Ways on How to Have a Long Lasting Relationship

Hi fellow steemians! I've been thinking for almost a week on what will be my next post and I'm kind of confused on what it would really be until I came up with an idea of a relationship. It's not just focusing on what does a relationship is but it is all about the effective ways on how to make your relationship long lasting.

So take a stay and lets get started.

For you as a person, what is a relationship for you?

For my own definition, it is the state of having a mutual connection with a person or even people around you. It's not just for couples because it is present in every person who feels the joy and happiness everytime they're with the people whom they expresses their care and love. And I do believe that no one ever not tried to love a person. That's why we have this 10 effective ways on how to have a long lasting relationship.

1. Know who you wanted to be with
   
   It is the first of everything in a cause that before you fell and got inlove you really need to know who will be that lucky person that you'll spend with your time and efforts. You need to be clever of who you want to be with because people now a days(not being judgemental) tend to be flirty and clingy in every person around them in a sense that for them it's just natural that's why you need to make a decision if that person is worth loving for.

2. Make that person feel special
   
   In loving your partner, you need to things that can make her/him think that he's/she's the most special person in the world. It can boost your partner's love towards you, for what reason? It's because you've just proved to her/him that you didn't take her/him for granted.

3. Do some efforts even in little things
   
   Do it really need to be? Yes, of course. For a reason that it's just a little thing to do for a person who really plays a big role in your life. Remember, if that person truely loves you even the smallest efforts will be highly appreciated and sometimes it can make that person cry with joy. What a simple way right?

4. Accept that person's flaws and differences
   
   "We're not perfect", aren't we? For others it is but for a person who truly love his/her partner it's definitely not true. For a reason that the person only see's the beauty inside her/his partner. We all have flaws and differences, all we have to do is to accept it and make it as an asset and serve it as an inspiration and reason why you love that person.

5. Learn to listen
   
   Hearing is just perceiving what was told but listening is the term for having an understanding of what the situation is to be able to solve it. In a relationship, both parties needed this kind of advice. It's really important to listen to your partner because in it you'll learn how to understand what your partner feels towards a particular situation that needs a deeper understanding.

6. Be positive on your perspectives
   
   Really? How important is this? It is important in as sense that if you just both have that positive perspective of having a long lasting relationship, well you have what it takes. Both of you really need to believe that your relationship will last long. All you need is positivity and courage to do anything for the sake to save your relationship till the end.

7. Don't you ever cheat
   
   One of the biggest and most common problem in a relationship. Is it really hard to keep a trust just for the sake to flirt with others and leave your partner hanging? I'm not comparing anyone and I'm not promoting a hasty generalization towards everyone but mostly of the couples who just want to have a handsome boyfriend or a pretty girlfriend are the one who likely to cheat. Base on my observations, they are the one who's not contented of what partner they have. That's why they tend to cheat and hurt his/her partner. It's a concern for me in a sense that I experienced being cheated and it really made a big hole in my heart. Nevertheless, even the dumbest person doesn't deserved to be hurt and suffer from pain of being cheated.

8. Learn to say sorry
   
   Of course, if you committed a sin or you had been cheating of your partner you must say sorry. Nothing will happen if you who committed the sin doesn't make a move to be forgiven. You have to make the first move. You need to underdtand her feelings that he/she hahas been hurt by your actions. And that's it, if you can just make your pride down I'm sure you deserved to be forgiven.

9. Have time for the sweet moments
   
   It's one of the most basic way to make your relationship stronger and stronger. You need to have time to the things that you and only your partner knows. You have to be intimate to your partner.
   Believe it or not, mostly of the relationships who last long has an intimate relationship. It sounds silly but yes it is. Every couple needs to have this kind of time to enjoy each others pleasure.

10. Have respect
    
    The most basic way to have a long lasting relationship but this is the most crucial for me that's why it's on our top 10 on the list. It is simply the root of every relationship. Without this all the said ways are useless so make sure to have respect to the person you love because if not, be ready to lose your love. Why? It is because every person is sensitive, we tend to do things that surpasses our limitations without knowing that we're already hurting our loved ones. So be careful on what you do.

For its conclusion, the said ways are just based on my perspective but still I do insist that in order to have a long lasting relationship both partners really need to do the work because no relationship last without having the full understanding of what does love and how to keep it forever.
